Description
Alessandro Baricco's Without Blood is a haunting and highly visual novel about damage, longing, memory, and forgiveness. The story begins with a shocking act of violence that sets in motion a chain of events decades later, when the daughter of the victims seeks revenge against her family's murderer. The book is a powerful exploration of the human experience, told through Baricco's effortless prose style. Ann Goldstein's superb translation brings this Italian novel to life, offering readers a unique perspective on the complexities of memory and forgiveness. This is a deeply moving and unforgettably sad book that will linger in the reader's mind long after finishing.
